From the geometry of the problem, the 20 m-long cable creates
the hypotenuse of a right triangle, with the extended of the other two sides of
size 20 m * cos(30 deg), which is around 17.3 m. Therefore, the ball has increased
by 20 m - 17.3 m = 2.7 m.
The potential energy will have altered by m*g*h, which is 1400 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 *
1.6 m , or about 37044 joules.
When the object is at the top of the hill it has the most potential energy. If it is sitting still, it has no kinetic energy. As the object begins to roll down the hill, it loses potential energy, but gains kinetic energy. The potential energy of the position of the object at the top of the hill is getting converted into kinetic energy. Hope this helped. :)
The speed of the ball is 27.4 m/s
Explanation:
The speed of an object is given by:
where
d is the distance covered
t is the time taken
In this problem, we have:
d = 300 yards is the distance covered by the golf ball
t = 10 s is the time taken
Keeping in mind that
1 yard = 0.914 m
We can convert the distance from yards to meters:
And substituting into the equation, we find the speed of the ball:
